. TJ^ E^rr<xa( jpgutyki^l
.PHCENTX: In a recent editorial, in
your paper, you mention the fact
that there is an application before
tb1"eX,egi8h?ture for a charter for a
railroad from Columbia to the North
Carolina line, via Cheraw, and that
the company applying for it have
$2,000,000 to build it. You say that
all that is wanted is the charter, and
give the scheme your approval, as
one of interest to the people, etc.
'? This is a project on the part of the
Haleigh and Gaston Railroad und
those interested in it, to mnke a con?
nection which will divert the travel
and as much trade as they can from
other established lines iu this Starte,
to which the State has herotofore
j contributed largely to build np, aud
I has in every way encouraged her citi
j zens to invest their capitnl, which
? has been greatly absorbed in these
I patriotic enterprises to develop the
resources of tho country and add to
the welfare of the people in various
ways. These railroads now consti?
tute the only hopo of our people to
recuperate from the calamities of war
and its consequences; and though
struggling, as they have and are,
through difficulties and embarrass?
ments which few could have survived,
they are, and will be, by proper en
couragement, in a position to aid ir
rescuing our State from poverty am]
ruin.
As a general rule, it is not denied
that it is unobjectionable simply tc
grant a charter for a railroad, but thi:
principle, like all others in pol?tica
economy, is to bo acted on consist
ently with vested interests, and to dc
no legislative act which operates ii
bad faith to those who, atfleast, npoi
an implied public pledge, have in
vested their means for the commoi
benefit.
There are four roads standing ii
this position, already completed, at i
heavy cost to the people and to tb<
State, now in debt, it is true, bat die
pensing innumerable blessings to thi
country in the remunerative employ
mont of labor, and in the purchos
of material and supplies along thei
respective routes. I mean the Soutl
Carolina Railroad, the Charlotte an<
South Carolina Railroad, tho North
eastern Railroad, and tho Wilmingto
I and Manchester Railroad. All c
these are fixed institutions, built nj
by investments of our own peopl
and striving to continue to retain th
public confidence and promote pul
lie convenience.
Tho proposed enterprise is autagc
nistio to them all, and is sought, b
strangers, to secure an enterpriso tba
contributes nothing to any establishe
line in the State, as all the rest do t
each other, but takes everything ot
to benefit lines in North Carolina.
I mention no new propositioi
when I say that such enterprises ar
not to bo encouraged; and I nee
only mention the State of Nort
Carolina as au example, which r
fused, year after year, a charter froi
Greensboro to Danville, Yirginii
because it conflicted with establishe
improvements in that State, in whic
the Stato and her people had iuves
ed their capital, among which wi
the Raleigh and Gaston Railroai
whose authorities were among tl
most activo in resistiug what wi
termed this great wrong upon veste
interests.
That connection was only made J
a military necessity by the Con fed
rate Government.
Shall this State bo less careful <
tho interests of her people and thc
enterprises? Are her old oud esta
lished works to be overslaughed ai
the capital iu them jeoparded, becau
it is said parties havo tho mom
ready? Are her cities to bo depriv
of their legitimate trade and profi
from these works, because otb
enterprises can make combinatio
to do it? It is- time to pauso ai
save, and, if needs be, aid what
loft. It may be, that it is true th
this company have their 82,000,O'
ready. It is, of course, part of th
recently voted by tho Legislature
North Caroliua, and it may not
amiss to refer to tho fact that Jud
Osborne and many other Senato
both Republicans and Democra
have filed their protest in the Seno
agaiust that appropriation, as bei
in direct conflict with tho Constil
tiou of tho State last ratified.
To grant a charter from tho Noi
Carolina line from Cheraw, would
of service to both States, as it woi
develop the largo deposits of coal si
to bo on Deep River, bring it to c
sea-port, apel distribute it by otl
routes throughout tho State, by whi
Columbia could be as fully, and
venture to say, as cheaply supplii
aud much sooner than through t
new line. This charter would g
this North Carolina company an i
vantage of two hours over any otl
lino from Florence; but this adv;
tag? would be compensated by i
benofito arising from the transpoi
tion of coal whioh would follow. Tl
all, at least three lines I have m
tioncd, would have a benefit from
public travel, and the fourth,
Charlotte and South Carolina Re
not injured.
In these remarks the iutercst of
stockholders in the Cheraw and Cc
fields Railroad have not been m
tioncd. In this entorprise a la
amount has boon subsoribed und
.8 VI' ' , 'I- I I" ,
.pended already to roach tho coal
nelda. Are these interests to be igt
nored? It may bo that some of tW
authorities of that nom puny may from
Homo motives givo way to the uew
project. " But they have the charter
nud have done work, aud the stock?
holders have uot abandoned thpir en?
terprise or consented to this sweeping
destruction, of their rights. It JS at
least but fair to hear those who have
subscribed their means to this com?
pany, with the 'dew of adding to their
benefit in the Cheraw and Darlington,
North-eastern, Wilmington and Man?
chester Boads, before assuming that
they have abandoned them to stran?
gers. HOME INTEREST.
THE EARTHQUAKE.-A tremendous

who are driving it to ruiu.
